Aquatic Animal Welfare Standards
Aquatic animal welfare standards aim to ensure the ethical treatment and well-being of animals in aquaculture and fisheries. These standards address issues like stocking density, water quality, disease prevention, and the handling of animals. By promoting best practices, the welfare of farmed aquatic species is improved, leading to healthier animals and higher-quality products. Welfare standards also support animal behavior and natural movements, which reduce stress and promote better growth rates. Compliance with welfare standards is increasingly important for the global aquaculture industry, as consumers are becoming more concerned about the ethical treatment of farmed species. These standards play a vital role in improving public perception and ensuring the long-term sustainability of the industry.
